Ok - I wanna play.
How the hell do I tell what the next thing is? And who calls the new tag? The poster?
All kinda of stuff in the D - and always looking for an excuse to ride...
(actually, rarely need one...)
I'm glad you want to play, we could always use more players.
I'm out on this one, any bridges or trussels here are concrete or wood.

Once my bike is running (REAL SOON, I SWEAR!), I'll definitely be in for a weekly tag thing here.

I call your steel bridge.

Here is the next tag:
No, it's not another bridge. Well it can be. It is some structure that has been destroyed and then rebuilt, preferably multiple times, and preferably not on purpose.
This is the 4th bridge that's been in this place. The first was destroyed in 1832 by "ice, high water, and severe weather". The second bridge was burnt down during the civil war to prevent the confederates from crossing the Susquehanna and reaching Philly. This caused them to go to Gettysburg instead. The third bridge was done in by a hurricane in 1896. This fourth bridge was supposed to have an upper deck, but it was never finished. It used to carry both car and train traffic, but the trains were moved to a bridge north of here.

I would have beat you by more than an hour if my my bike would have restarted. It got the first pictures fine, but when I shut it off to get the new tag, the battery was too weak to turn it over while warm. My dad came to the rescue, but as soon as he arrived it was able to start up.
It seems like all the bridges here have been knocked down and rebuilt at least once due to hurricanes, ice jams, or both.

I just got home from a car trip and along my travels found a metal one lane bridge in the middle of nowhere.
I was going to take my bike back tomorrow if the tag hadn't been gotten yet.
This new tag is a good one, going to have to think on it.

Something like this?

This is the rug mill in town. Originally a factory, vacated and left to decay, razed, then rebuilt as low rent apartments.
Not multiple times however.
This would be very easy to get as its across town from me, so if its good to use, ill wait on it a bit.

This tag has lasted 5 days so here it is...bridge has been redone at least 3 times in 140 years to it's latest version here. Mary's Bridge got the name for poor Mary who fell into the river a long time ago when it was a foot bridge. She was walking home after dark from work and someone had removed the foot bridge due to ice flow and never told anyone so little Mary walked into the abyss....and drowned! (true story)
Previous versions on the same location over the river....

BTW, I have been shopping a GS650E or G hard the last year or so, but just couldn't pull the trigger...maybe too cheap and missed a few deals. Then I saw this the other day, made an offer, was accepted and rode it home for just a few hundred more than a nice roadworthy GS650. Old school classic style, no frills, handles great, rides smooth, and still has some pep when cracking the throttle at only 430lbs dry.
The more I look at that bike the more I like it. I'm just guessing by the signal light styling, early 80's ?
